On the other side, Isolde had already told Pablo about Ashley’s identity. Of course, Pablo also knew about it.
Previously, someone from the palace had ridden a horse to report that Ashley would temporarily live on Marquis
Eldermere’s estate.
Therefore, Pablo did not reminisce with Isolde and welcomed Ashley in first.
In the crowd, a pair of eyes were fixed on Oliver's face.
From the moment Oliver got out of the carriage, her eyes had been fixed on Oliver.
The person was Cristina.
In the past, she had never thought highly of Oliver.
However, it was different today. He had made a contribution and the King had conferred him the title of Great
Marshal. All of this was not enough to make her heart race.
She cout to welchim just for show.
However, the moment she saw him get out of the carriage, she saw that he was dressed in military attire. He
was mighty and handsome. His eyes were bright and cold. It was as if she had just met this fiancé whom she had
ruthlessly broken off the engagement with.
He was astonishingly handsand valiant, his figure clad in military attire, exuding an indescribable. soul-
stirring aura.
Ever since she was rejected by Johnathan, she had been sad for a long time. She began to feel indignant and felt
that Johnathan would definitely be attracted to her.
She had been waiting for Johnathan to cand look for her, but she had been waiting foolishly. Johnathan was
nowhere to be seen. She ordered someone to ask around, but what she got back was how loving Johnathan and
his wife were. It was enviable.
Her heart broke.
However, the moment she saw Oliver, her broken heart quickly mended.
Of course, as a noble lady of an aristocratic family, it was impossible for her to put down her pride and go
forward to express goodwill.

She waited for Oliver to cto her.
Oliver had an engagement with her previously. To put it bluntly, Cristina was out of his league. She made the
decision to break off the engagement and also personally broke it off. He should not have been willing to break it
off. Now that she had married him as a concubine, he should feel honored.
Therefore, she remained haughty, her head held high, her chin almost menacingly poised, as she waited for
Oliver to step forward and extend his goodwill.
She would not be willing to be a concubine forever. She had to think of a way to snatch back what belonged to
her.

Oliver brushed past her without even looking at her.
She could hardly believe her eyes.
She exhaled and wished she could go forward and pull his arm to interrogate him.
However, she had been taught a lesson and knew how to endure. Today was not the tto flare up, so she
followed everyone in.
Isolde and Oliver first returned to the Ningser Pavilion to bathe and change their clothes, while Margaret
arranged for Ashley to settle in. The manor had prepared a feast, awaiting the three to finish their ablutions and
join the gathering.
Oliver did not originally live in Ningser Pavilion. Moreover, after the news of his death came, they held at funeral
for him. More than half of his clothes were burned. Fortunately, Pablo still had sclothes left as a memento.
He was not completely naked.
The people who had been serving Oliver had also been sent away. Therefore, Pablo sent Miniro he was serving
him over.
Miniro was called “mini”, but he had a huge face.
His face was large, his head was big, and they were out of proportion with his slender body, giving him a
somewhat comical appearance. However, he was extremely efficient in handling tasks, and within moments, he
adjusted the water temperature for Oliver to step in and bathe.
When Noelle, Britney, and Emilia saw Isolde return, they surrounded her and chatted for a while before giving
her a bath.
Emilia held Isolde’s hand and did not speak. She just looked on. There was a motherly worry and joy in her eyes,
making Isolde cry.
She had finally managed to compose her emotions enough to go and bathe. As Noelle added petals to her
bathwater, she chuckled and said, “My lady, how long has it been since you last bathed? The water has already
turned black.”
Isolde smiled and said, “I can’t even care about eating. How can | care about taking a shower?”
“You've been following Mr. Valois all the way back. Doesn’t Mr. Valois mind that you stink?” Noelle covered her
mouth and giggled.
Isolde was stunned. She had never thought about this question.
She knew that her body was smelly, but this was how war was. No one smelled good.
Oliver stank, too..
Isolde tilted her head and thought for a moment. It seemed that she did not smell anything on him all the way
back!
She was stunned. So am | the only one who smells? God, how embarrassing is that!
Noelle did not know what was going on in her mind. She rubbed Isolde’s back and smiled. “Look, this hot towel is
covered in mud when | rub it down. Your face is also black.”
“My face is dark too? | washed it. Isolde becnervous and quickly asked her to bring a mirror over.

Britney fetched a bronze mirror from outside and said, “Don’t listen to Noelle’s nonsense, it’s not black an all! It's
just a little dirty.”
When Isolde took the lozenge-shaped bronze mirror to have a look, it wasn't just a little dirty-it was truly
black.
She rubbed it hard, but it didn’t coff. She knew she was tanned, not dirty.
“Don’t worry, you are still very beautiful, just a little darker. Strictly speaking, it's not dark, it's a healthy color.
Look, which lady in Argentum has your skin color?” Britney comforted.
Isolde said gloomily, “That's right. Indeed, which young lady in Argentum has a black face? Everyone's skin is
fair.”

“It's really not black, at most a wheatish tone, but it’s very rosy. Look closely, it’s still quite beautiful,” Britney
said proudly.
In any case, she did not think that Isolde was ugly. In fact, she thought Isolde looked even better than
before.
Isolde did not care about appearances before.
But now, she cared a little because she had someone she cared about.
In her previous life, she did not pay much attention to her appearance. Her combat ability was st than William's.
She believed that he would eventually recognize her strengths, considering her looks to be of secondary
importance.
However, things were different now. In terms of martial arts and battle strategies, she was far inferior to Oliver.
When skills fell short, she could only rely on looks, but even her face was letting her down-it had darkened.
Meanwhile, Oliver remained as handsas ever, which truly depressed her.
After taking a shower, she tried on several clothes.
It was white, showing that her face was dark.
The red one showed that her face was darker.
The yellow color showed the black and yellow color of her face.
In green, she looked like a black-faced spinach.
Wrapped in her pajamas, she sat dejectedly in front of the bronze mirror. Her face looked even less energetic and
uglier.
Emilia smiled and said, “How cafter returning from a battle, you've becso particular about your
appearance? You look so beautiful in white, red, yellow, noble, and green. You look good in all of them.”
“Emilia, take out one of your clothes forto wear. I'm old anyway, so it’s more suitable forto wear your
clothes. Isolde did not have any confidence at all. She thought she was really ugly.
Emilia took the red dress and threw it to Britney and Noelle. “Cut the crap. How long have you been dawdling?
They've been waiting for dinner outside. Why don’t you look good in this? Isn't your skin just a little darker? Look
at Sofia’s dark skin. Isn't her husband doting on her?”
Isolde knew about Sofia. Her face was extremely black. She and her husband were both working for the
Chapter 252 Black Isolde
Valen family.
She had already stooped to being compared with Sofia! She was that dark!
